Motorola atrix 2. If AP set can consider xperia S / SL / acro S. hmm.gif

atrix 2 ? Im concerned that its an older model , so update might not come as well as compared to the others. I dont think its got ICS rite ?

Its a great phone , but my issue is , its just abit old. If it was cheaper , maybe I might consider , but at 1.1 - 1.2K ,its a little too much considering the age of the model.

your thoughts ?

Getting ICS, but Jellybean totally no clue. Oh ya nearly forgot, how about Huawei ascend P1? New model and got ICS. RM9xx ori. smile.gif Between atrix 2 and P1, definately P1 is the better choice.

I looked around , the price for atrix 2 is around 1288 . Am I right ?

Is the huawei reliable ? I also heard their service is quite bad also.

but then again , who has good service now days.

Not sure, I guess it's around 1.2k.
Huawei is reliable, service not sure. Ya u are right, many companies also got bad service. Sony...HTC..Nokia also got bad service. Only Apple and Samsung looks fine for now.

Samsung good ? I have had bad luck with them. Got a LCD monitor from them , within 8 days rosak . Had 2 send back repair 3 times before they agreed to give a new unit.

Same thing happened to my dads handphone , also from samsung.

Btw, i sent it to the main service center in PJ. Always long queue there. Had to wait more than an hour the last time i went there.I guess many people also got problem with their samsung .

SInce then decided not going to buy samsung stuff.
